Partition after recovery

Hi,

I have bought a Sony Vaio CW series notebook.
The recovery disk is inside the harddrive so i don't have to worry about fresh install of Win7.

The harddrive is a 250GB, i have made partitions.
I have splitted them 100(C🙂 and 150gb(D🙂

If i do a recovery in the future, will the partitions be reset too and back to one 250gb(C🙂?

I am thinking in the future i would only do a fresh install to Drive C only and keeping all the data on Drive D (documents, mp3, movies etc.)

Is it possible?
 
What good is a recovery partition on your HDD if the drive fails?

Suggest you put that recovery software on a DVD or an ISO file on an external drive or flash media.
 
sorry, but what i meant is to only recover the operation system, now is the Win7. without recovering all the partition because i have splitted the drive.
 
That's all well and good. A recovery" operation from that partition would restore the OS to the OS partition. It should not change any of the others.

What I said before still applies - makre a copy of your restore partition on a DVD or other HDD. Otherwise, if you have a hard drive failure, that recovery ware will do you no good.
